Chapter 176: Fei’er
“No no, I didn’t think that at all!” Shi An’an hurriedly shook her head, denying she had such an idea.
“First, my self-control is stronger than his!
Second, I’ve now cultivated spiritual power too. Do you think I’d be as unable to resist as him and lose myself?”
“Of course not!” Shi An’an decisively shook her head.
“You…” Xiu was completely at a loss with Shi An’an.
He thought that in this world, she was probably the only one who could make him lose his resistance.
Several people looked at Fei’er on the ground, watching his head deeply buried in the catnip. Suddenly, he rolled over with his four feet in the air, exposing his belly.
“What’s wrong?”
Shi An’an looked at the palm in front of her and asked.
Xiu’s face darkened as he kicked Fei’er with his foot, but Fei’er was full of enjoyment, unmoving, continuing to expose his belly.
“Wali”
Xiu called out to Wali nearby.
Wali looked up at Xiu.
“Flip it over.”
“Hahahaha”
Yina heard this, glanced at the exposed spot on the ground, and burst out laughing.
These young ones now are really amusing.
Wali noticed this too and hurriedly struggled to pick up the orange cat, making him crawl on the ground.
“Meow!”
Clearly, the orange cat didn’t want to lie on his stomach; he still wanted to lie down.
Xiu narrowed his eyes. “Take away the catnip.”
Wali picked up the catnip from the ground and walked to the side. The orange cat noticed the catnip being taken away, instantly sobered up, and immediately chased after it.
Seeing Fei’er get up, Xiu lowered his arm, bent down, and grabbed the orange cat.
“Meow?” Fei’er initially wanted to struggle, but then realized the one grabbing him was Your Highness, so he obediently stopped moving.
“Change back!” Xiu said in a deep voice.
Fei’er reluctantly glanced at the catnip in Wali’s hand. When he was placed on the ground, he changed back to human form.
“Cough, thank you… thank you Your Highness for curing me. Fei’er is endlessly grateful!” Fei’er respectfully saluted Xiu.
After accepting his thanks, Xiu pulled Shi An’an and walked outside.
“We’ll go check other places. You all stay here and don’t go out.”
“Okay!”
“Master, can I go?” Wali looked at his master expectantly.
Shi An’an stopped and looked at Wali. “Later. For now, practice the heart method I just taught you here.”
“Okay!” Wali immediately agreed obediently upon hearing his master.
Shi An’an nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Yina. “Yina, you all stay here. We’ll go check the situation in other places and come back soon.”
“Got it. You all must be careful.”
Yina picked up the fruit from the ground and handed it to Shi An’an. “Take these. If you encounter a star beast, smear its juice on your bodies…”
Shi An’an took the trichosanthes. “Okay, thank you Yina.”
Xiu glanced at Fei’er nearby, who was still staring intently at the catnip, and said coldly, “You protect these two here.”
“Understood, Your Highness!” Fei’er immediately snapped back to attention.
After giving instructions, Xiu changed back to potato form and left the cave with An’an.
“Ah, right!”
Suddenly, Shi An’an patted her forehead. Xiu ahead turned his head and looked at Shi An’an puzzled.
Shi An’an quickly turned around, took out some nutrient solution—these were the ones Eldest Brother had forced her to bring when leaving the empire last time.
Although she no longer needed to eat, Eldest Brother still made her take them just in case.
Now was perfect to give them to Yina and the others.
“No food for now. Drink this first to replenish your strength.”
“Okay, thank you! Thank you so much!” Yina trembled as she took the nutrient solution.
After handing over the nutrient solution, Shi An’an quickly left with Xiu.
Fei’er walked over, took a tube of nutrient solution, saw the mark on it. “Ah, it’s our empire’s special grade nutrient solution!”
Fei’er excitedly opened one and drank it, smacking his lips after. “Special grade nutrient solution really is different!”
Yina curiously looked at the nutrient solution in her hand and saw it was indeed the empire’s mark.
“Wali, here, you drink one too. You won’t be hungry after drinking it.”
Wali took it, looked at the nutrient solution, opened it, took a sip, and a feeling of fullness instantly came.
He had never drunk special grade nutrient solution before; it really was different. He felt his body warm and full of strength.
Yina took a sip and nodded repeatedly. “This nutrient solution is really delicious.”
Fei’er puffed out his chest. “Of course, this is special grade! Only our imperial royalty can drink it!”
Yina was full of surprise.
Wali said nothing, limped to the side, sat down, closed his eyes, and began practicing the heart method his master taught him.
Fei’er curiously watched Wali, squatted down. “Brother, can you teach me? Let me practice too?”
Wali opened his eyes, looked at him warily. “Wait for Master to come back and ask Master.” Then he closed his eyes and ignored Fei’er.
After being rejected, Fei’er pouted, stood up, and looked around.
Yina looked at Fei’er. “I advise you to stay put here honestly. Don’t move around, or the star beasts above might discover you.”
Hearing star beast, Fei’er shrank his neck, sat down, saw the catnip nearby, his eyes lit up, turned into an orange cat again, and pounced on it.
Then again rolled over with four feet in the air, exposing his belly, exposing…
Yina: …

Federation Edge Star
Shi Zhen Guang and Liu Qi had now arrived at the abyss entrance.
“This is the place.”
Liu Qi looked below and said.
“I tried three or four times last time. The last time, I persisted to one or two hundred meters, then couldn’t anymore. The poison gas concentration below is too high, thicker the deeper you go, and it’s bottomless…”
Shi Zhen Guang looked below. “You guard up top. I’ll go down. If something happens, you can still assist me.”
Liu Qi nodded in agreement. Shi Zhen Guang then took out the equipment his second son gave him, geared up fully, took out the rope, handed one end to Liu Qi, and tied the other to himself.
After Liu Qi tied the rope to a nearby stone, Shi Zhen Guang gestured to him and suddenly jumped into the abyss.
Liu Qi leaned over, looking worriedly below. Gradually, Shi Zhen Guang’s figure disappeared.
The deeper Shi Zhen Guang went, the more he found it was indeed as Liu Qi said—the poison gas concentration grew greater, miasma filling the surroundings.
Even with the spotlight on, visibility was only about one meter.
Continuing down, visibility grew smaller until there was finally no light at all.
Shi Zhen Guang checked the depth; he was now at three hundred eighty meters.
He wanted to go deeper, but suddenly a warning sounded in his helmet.
This equipment was specially made by Shi Anyu.
The poison gas concentration now was so high it was almost substantial. Shi Zhen Guang felt the equipment on his body being squeezed.
He felt below with his feet—still empty. He threw down a stone he had casually picked up above.
No sound came back. Shi Zhen Guang’s heart sank. No sound, no sight, no touch—he couldn’t judge the position of that black hole.
